Satan is the god of this world. He blinds the minds of unbelievers to the glorious light of the gospel. But how?
Does Satan go around whispering in the ears of unbelievers? Does he send devils out to stop up their hearts and minds? Furthermore, how does he work the devices that Paul warns us of?
Satan is not omnipotent or omnipresent. He inhabits only one place at a time. So he alone cannot achieve what is said of him. However, there is a principle in scripture that one is made responsible for their actions. It was Satan’s actions that determined the course of this present world.
